County animal shelters now open Sunday

Beginning March 1, the Castaic Animal Shelter, along with five other county animal shelters, will be open Sundays so adopters have an additional day to find a new pet. The Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control realigned staff schedules so the shelters can be open on Sundays. The decision does not incur any additional operating cost.

The new operating hours will be noon to 7 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday, Saturday and Sunday. For more information, visit animalcare.lacounty.gov.
